Europa Universalis 4 (aka: EU4) is a grand-strategy game made by Paradox Interactive, I would say the game is a Real Time Strategy, but that wouldn't be 100% correct, since you can make time go faster or slower. I could compare EU4 with EU3 but I had never played it, so I don't think that's a good idea.

Anyway, in this game you can play as (almost) every nation in the world that existed during the time period of 1444 to 1821. So, like, you choose a year to play, I recommend 1444, because that means you will have a longer match, since the game ends in 1821. After that you have to choose a nation. You can play as an european nation, a north-african nation, an indian nation, an asian nation, you can even play as a native tribe in the Americas and many other nations!

The whole world is divided in provinces, so you don't have a feel of completely freedom while moving your army, but I don't think that's a problem since that's a game extremely focused in strategy, so in a war, you need to be careful in which province you will send your army, and I believe this system makes the game easier, in a good way.

The game is really historically accurate, and it is not balanced (for a more historical accurate experience). If you play as a native tribe, you will probably lose when europeans arrive in the Americas and try to expand to your lands. But what I really love about this game is that EU4 isn't a war game, if you go to war a lot, your armies will get weaker because of their high War Exhaustion, rebels will attack you because of the country's low stability and countries nearby you will get mad at you.

Okay, so since this isn't a pure wargame, EU4 have amazing diplomatic actions, you can ask another nation to become your vassal, you can arrange a royal marriage, issue embargo to a nation you consider a threat, make alliances and many more stuff. Another really awesome...
